Abstract :
In this paper, a synchronous/permanent magnet hybrid (SynPM) machine is presented. It is shown that the machine has good power density and efficiency, and that the machine has true field regulation capability. The principle of operation, finite element analysis and simulation of this new machine are investigated in the paper
